Q&A With Christmas Caroloke Creator

Frank Giotto, who owns a number of successful companies, does a lot of business travel. He noted that in recent years there has been a great increase in the number of airline delays and flight cancellations, many of which resulted from security measures after the events of 9/11.

Adding to the problem is the fact that many airport hotels are often filled to capacity, and travelers have to spend an uncomfortable night sitting on a hard bench in the airline terminal. Wouldn’t it be great, he thought, if there was something like a “mini motel,” a portable motel room where business travelers could get a good night’s sleep. They would arrive relaxed and refreshed for their important business meetings the next day.

Since such a product did not exist, Mr. Giotto used his inventive talents to create it himself. The result is the “Mini Motel,” a truly innovative solution that provides portable sleeping accommodations for a wide range of situations. It’s a compact tent with pillow, air mattress, alarm clock and reading lamp. Once he invented it, the many uses people have found for the Mini Motel have exceeded even his expectations.
